Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six.

:01:31.:01:54.

The funeral of PC Keith Palmer, who was killed in last

:01:55.:01:57.

month's Westminster attack, has been held at London's

:01:58.:01:59.

Thousands of police officers from all over the country lined

:02:00.:02:02.

the route of the funeral cortege which set off from the Palace

:02:03.:02:05.

of Westminster - where his coffin had lain in rest overnight.

:02:06.:02:08.

PC Palmer, who was married with a five-year-old daughter,

:02:09.:02:11.

was guarding the Houses of Parliament when he was

:02:12.:02:13.

A floral tribute on top of the hearse read: "No 1 daddy".

:02:14.:02:18.

At the gates of the Palace of Westminster police constable Keith

:02:19.:02:33.

Palmer's coffin paused. At the very spot where he was killed 19 days

:02:34.:02:41.

ago. The place where unarmed he moved towards a man brandishing two

:02:42.:02:46.

knifes, where he put himself in harm's way, where he protected

:02:47.:02:52.

Parliament to protect our democracy. Police officers from every force in

:02:53.:02:56.

the country lined the route. Thousands of men and women who did

:02:57.:03:00.

not know Keith Palmer but know what it means to wear the badge. You

:03:01.:03:06.

never really know what you're going to face when you go out there. So it

:03:07.:03:10.

is with incredible bravery that he did that. I think it brings home

:03:11.:03:13.

what the job is about, the risks that you take, it shows what a

:03:14.:03:19.

family we are really bad we all look out for one another and we all do

:03:20.:03:23.

the same thing at the end of the day. The global police family came

:03:24.:03:28.

together in London today, including officers from New York's police

:03:29.:03:32.

department. We have had so much support from offices around the

:03:33.:03:35.

country, around the United States as well as from other places in the

:03:36.:03:39.

world when we have had officers die in the line of duty, so we have felt

:03:40.:03:44.

a need to be supportive back. As the cortege headed across the river

:03:45.:03:48.

police officers paid tribute in the air, on the water, and along the

:03:49.:03:54.

route. Two of PC Palmer's colleagues spoke of the friend they so admired.

:03:55.:03:59.

If you could paint a picture of a perfect policeman you would be

:04:00.:04:03.

painting a picture of Keith Palmer. He sounds like a pretty

:04:04.:04:08.

extraordinary man. He was, he was so down-to-earth and normal. He came to

:04:09.:04:11.

work because he had a family to support. He was a fantastic dad and

:04:12.:04:19.

a fantastic husband. And... He is going to be missed so much. As the

:04:20.:04:24.

coffin passed through the capital London stopped what it was doing to

:04:25.:04:27.

remember all those who lost their lives on that appalling day, PC

:04:28.:04:32.

Palmer and the four men and women killed on Westminster Bridge. PC

:04:33.:04:36.

Palmer symbolises the public service and sacrifice that underpins our

:04:37.:04:40.

society, a debt we owe to all those who put their lives on the line

:04:41.:04:44.

defending our freedoms. But he was also a husband, a father, a family

:04:45.:04:49.

man, and so today is about both national reflection and private

:04:50.:04:57.

grief. PC Palmer's wife asked that the family's privacy be respected

:04:58.:05:02.

inside Southwark Cathedral. But the sound of the service was relayed to

:05:03.:05:07.

the streets outside. Keith laid down his life for each

:05:08.:05:14.

one of us here. Each one of you who have lined the streets and filled

:05:15.:05:20.

the bridges of this city today. In her first public engagement in

:05:21.:05:23.

her new role Metropolitan Police Commissioner Cressida Dick honoured

:05:24.:05:29.

a fallen colleague. An amazing life. He was clearly very

:05:30.:05:34.

kind, very good-hearted, very hard-working, a very, very talented

:05:35.:05:40.

police officer. Police constable Keith Palmer's name has been added

:05:41.:05:43.

to the national police Roll of Honour, the grief will lessen, his

:05:44.:05:48.

bravery will endure for generations to come. Mark Easton, BBC News,

:05:49.:05:50.

Southwark. The Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson

:05:51.:05:53.

has warned that Russian and Syrian military officers could face

:05:54.:05:55.

international sanctions, in the wake of the chemical

:05:56.:05:57.

attack in Northern Syria. Mr Johnson was speaking in Italy,

:05:58.:06:02.

where foreign ministers are considering what further action

:06:03.:06:04.

to take against President Assad, following President Trump's cruise

:06:05.:06:08.

missile strike last week. Our diplomatic correspondent,

:06:09.:06:12.

James Robbins reports. America's Secretary of State is in

:06:13.:06:22.

Italy to turn up the international heat on Syria's President Assad and

:06:23.:06:28.

his Russian backers. Rex Tillerson, very deliberately joined an

:06:29.:06:31.

international wreath laying at the memorial to a Nazi atrocity here in

:06:32.:06:37.

1944, the massacre of local villagers. We remember the events of

:06:38.:06:44.

August 12, 1944, that occurred. Then he drew a direct parallel to last

:06:45.:06:50.

week's gas attack in Syria's Idlib province. We rededicate ourselves to

anywhere in the world. Then-President Trump's Foreign

Minister, the man who will go to Moscow later this week, met Boris

Johnson, the Foreign Secretary who cancelled his visit to be here

:07:08.:07:11.

instead. They are working together to get the widest possible

:07:12.:07:13.

internationally agreed challenge to the Russians.

:07:14.:07:18.

Immediately afterwards Boris Johnson told me he is pressing for new

:07:19.:07:23.

sanctions against Russia as well as Syria. And we will be discussing the

:07:24.:07:28.

possibility of further sanctions, certainly on some of the Syrian

:07:29.:07:33.

military figures and indeed on some of the Russian military figures who

:07:34.:07:38.

have been involved in coordinating the Syrian military efforts, and who

:07:39.:07:45.

of course are thereby contaminated by the appalling behaviour of the

:07:46.:07:49.

Assad regime. What we're trying to do is to give Tillerson the clearest

:07:50.:07:54.

possible mandate from us as the West, the UK, and all of our allies

:07:55.:08:01.

here to say to the Russians, this is your choice. Stick with that guy,

:08:02.:08:04.

stick with that tyrant, or work with us to find a better solution.

:08:05.:08:10.

President Assad's major backers, Iran and Russia, have now warned

:08:11.:08:14.

that military retaliation, if President Trump repeats last

:08:15.:08:18.

Friday's cruise missile strikes, although it around's President

:08:19.:08:21.

Rouhani, seen as a moderate, seemed to contradict his own hardliners

:08:22.:08:26.

today saying change within the Assad regime should go hand-in-hand with

:08:27.:08:30.

fighting his opponents. TRANSLATION: Terrorism in Syria

:08:31.:08:35.

should be eradicated and of course some reform should be permitted in

Syria within the Syrian regime. This evening G7 ministers all but

:08:40.:08:44.

one of them Nato members too are starting to explore new pressures

:08:45.:08:48.

they could apply, knowing full well that Russia has so far stuck firmly

:08:49.:08:50.

with President Assad and his regime. The discussions here will go on deep

:08:51.:08:58.

into the evening and resume in the morning. Whatever is agreed, will

:08:59.:09:03.

Russia and Vladimir Putin plink Paul Buckle? It is not clear they will,

:09:04.:09:06.

particularly after hearing Rex Tillerson, America's Secretary of

State, say repeatedly over the weekend that the United States's

major priority remains not dislodging President Assad but

defeating IS, or so-called Isis, in Syria. Sophie.

James Robbins in Italy, thank you. Police in Manchester say the number

:09:20.:09:21.

of people abusing a drug called Spice has reached epidemic

:09:22.:09:24.

proportions and it's putting They say they had to deal

:09:25.:09:26.

with around 60 Spice related incidents over the weekend and have

:09:27.:09:32.

now launched extra patrols The banned drug can leave users

:09:33.:09:34.

looking like zombies - hallucinating - rooted to the spot -

or passing out. Slumped, zombie-like

:09:39.:09:40.

and barely conscious. Another man metres away

:09:41.:09:45.

with similar symptoms. And everyone we speak

for homeless people say Just like chill, but

:10:03.:10:07.

like you're in space and and the next you get hooked and lose

:10:08.:10:13.

control. And others say the problem's

:10:14.:10:21.

not going away. It's a lot worse now

:10:22.:10:26.

than it was before, a lot worse. The reason why they're on the Spice

:10:27.:10:30.

is because it is cheaper. It is only ?5 bag,

:10:31.:10:37.

weed is ?10 a bag, The drug is a synthetic

:10:38.:10:39.

form of cannabis but can be much more potent

:10:40.:10:44.

and is highly addictive. After being made illegal last year

:10:45.:10:46.

it is now sold on the streets. Spice is a drug often associated

:10:47.:10:49.

with people sleeping rough, but police tell me it affects

:10:50.:10:51.

people of all ages all over the city The force says it received nearly 60

:10:52.:10:55.

Spice-related calls over the weekend There was a number

:10:56.:11:02.

of areas around here such as Primark, the fast-food

:11:03.:11:10.

outlets like Burger King, round here McDonald's, and Morrisons

:11:11.:11:13.

where there were groups that had congregated

:11:14.:11:25.

and were participating in the Spice and the reactions

:11:26.:11:27.

were quite adverse. At the moment our attention

:11:28.:11:29.

is being focused on the safeguarding and dealing

:11:30.:11:31.

with the users. Where actually we want to be doing

:11:32.:11:33.

more work against the dealers, and that's where our focus will be

:11:34.:11:36.

over the coming weeks. I spoke to one paramedic

:11:37.:11:38.

who confirmed the We've seen people

:11:39.:11:40.

rocking back and forth, sat down, stood up walking around

:11:44.:11:46.

later they seem OK again. Is that what Spice does?

:11:47.:11:49.

Is that the symptoms? So that's our experience of them

:11:50.:11:51.

at the moment, certainly. becoming very spaced out, very odd

:11:52.:11:54.

behaviour. What we're seeing is someone's

but has been struggling for some time and made a pre-tax loss of more

:13:00.:13:01.

than ?5 million last year. The head of Barclays is expected

:13:02.:13:05.

to be stripped of his million pound annual bonus for attempting

:13:06.:13:08.

to uncover the identity of a whistle-blower who'd raised

:13:09.:13:10.

concerns about a senior member Jes Staley could lose

:13:11.:13:12.

up to ?1.3 million. He's also been issued

:13:13.:13:20.

with a formal reprimand, and is subject to an investigation

:13:21.:13:22.

by the financial regulators. Here's our economics

:13:23.:13:24.

editor Kamal Ahmed. When Jes Staley joined Barclays in

:13:25.:13:32.

2015 he had a straightforward message, make the bank simpler and

:13:33.:13:35.

more profitable. The board and shareholders were delighted when he

:13:36.:13:39.

appeared to achieve both in his first year. There was a third issue

:13:40.:13:43.

he wanted to tackle, one he outlined to me in his first broadcast

:13:44.:13:45.

interview. I do believe the banks lost their

:13:46.:13:52.

way ten to 15 years ago and we lost a lot of trust through the financial

:13:53.:13:57.

crisis. We have an obligation to return that. That obligation was

:13:58.:14:01.

undermined today after it was revealed the chief executive had

:14:02.:14:05.

tried not once but twice to find out the identity of a Barclays

:14:06.:14:10.

whistle-blower. In June last year the board at Barclays received an

:14:11.:14:13.

anonymous letter raising concerns about the recruitment of a senior

:14:14.:14:17.

employee by Jes Staley who have suffered personal problems in 2009

:14:18.:14:23.

and 2010. Jes Staley found out about the letter, felt it was a malicious

:14:24.:14:27.

attack, and asked Barclays's internal security to find the

:14:28.:14:32.

whistle-blower's identity but was told his request was not

:14:33.:14:35.

appropriate. The next month after Barclays investigated the

:14:36.:14:38.

allegations and said they were without substance, Jes Staley tried

:14:39.:14:43.

again but failed to obtain the identity. US law enforcement

:14:44.:14:45.

agencies were approached to give support. The Barclays board only

:14:46.:14:54.

became aware of Jes Staley's attempted intervention when it

:14:55.:14:56.

received a second whistle-blower letter earlier this year. It will

:14:57.:14:59.

now be for the regulators to decide is this a yellow card offence, a

:15:00.:15:04.

warning for a stupid mistake? Or is it a straight red for a Chief

:15:05.:15:08.

Executive who is very temperament is now under scrutiny? In a statement

:15:09.:15:14.

Jes Staley admitted he had made mistakes. I have apologised to the

:15:15.:15:19.

Barclays board and accepted its conclusion that my personal actions

:15:20.:15:22.

in this matter were errors on my part. I will also accept whatever

:15:23.:15:27.

sanction it deems appropriate. The regulators could go as far as

:15:28.:15:32.

banning Turn 2 from working in banking, its ultimate sanction, as

:15:33.:15:34.

well as imposing fines. Whistle-blowing is about trust --

:15:35.:15:40.

banning Mr Staley. Part of the trust is protecting the identity of the

:15:41.:15:42.

whistle-blower and if a senior person is looking for the messenger

:15:43.:15:45.

rather than listening to the message then there is a problem. Mr Staley

:15:46.:15:51.

has questions to answer. He was very close to the person he hired, did

:15:52.:15:55.

that cloud his judgment? His pay will be cut, by how much? The man

:15:56.:16:00.

hired to reset Barclays's position on trust knows his bank is back in

:16:01.:16:04.

the headlines for all the wrong reasons. Kamal Ahmed, BBC News. The

:16:05.:16:09.

time is 6:15pm. The top story this evening.

Thousands of police officers have lined the streets of London

for the funeral of PC Keith Palmer - who was murdered in

Australia's Great Barrier Reef is one of the seven natural

:16:45.:16:46.

But scientists say rising water temperatures have stripped

:16:47.:16:53.

the colour from around two thirds of it and it's in danger

:16:54.:16:56.

Mass bleaching happens when the coral gets stressed -

:16:57.:17:00.

The reef is home to more than 130 species of shark and 1,600

:17:01.:17:06.

Our Science Editor, David Shukman, reports.

:17:07.:17:13.

A world of brilliant colour, teeming with life. This is the Great Barrier

:17:14.:17:23.

Reef at its best. The largest single biological structure on earth. But

:17:24.:17:27.

vulnerable to the slightest change. This is how part of reefs look - a

:17:28.:17:33.

ghostly white. The corals more like a graveyard. A new survey has found

:17:34.:17:38.

long stretches of reef have turned pale. For the second year running.

:17:39.:17:44.

Giving the corals no chance to recover and the scientist in charge

:17:45.:17:50.

says he is worried. It seems likely between this event and last event,

:17:51.:17:57.

roughly 50% of coral will have died in a period of less than 18 months.

:17:58.:18:06.

That binding measure is a huge blow to the reef. What is happening to

:18:07.:18:12.

the Great Barrier Reef is shocking to scientists, this gives you an

:18:13.:18:17.

idea of what is at stake. This is healthy coral, on the right coral

:18:18.:18:22.

that's turned white and it is at risk. Healthy coral provides energy

:18:23.:18:32.

from algae, but if the water is too warm the algae is expelled. Last

:18:33.:18:36.

year scientists found the northern third was most badly hit. That is

:18:37.:18:40.

where the waters are usually warmest. This time t central section

:18:41.:18:47.

has suffered and usually the water there are cooler. Being bleached two

:18:48.:18:53.

years running makes it harder for coral to recover. It can take at

:18:54.:19:01.

least a decade. Some corals are weaker and scientists are trying to

:19:02.:19:08.

find out which ones may recover. I can bleach but it does not

:19:09.:19:13.

necessarily die. If a coral bleaches year after year, that is going to

:19:14.:19:17.

reduce its ability to recover. So two years in a row is worrying. The

:19:18.:19:23.

reef faces a lot of threats from pollution to industrial development.

:19:24.:19:28.

But on top of that there is climate change, bring higher temperatures

:19:29.:19:31.

that makes bleaching more likely. A drunk driver who crashed

:19:32.:19:36.

Andy Verity, has the story. October 2008, the height of the

:20:49.:20:58.

banking crisis. The Government spent billions trying to stop banks going

:20:59.:21:03.

under. One way of judging how healthy they were was by how much

:21:04.:21:07.

interest they were paying to borrow cash. That would also affect the

:21:08.:21:15.

cost of mortgages. Each bank had to estimate how much interest they

:21:16.:21:20.

would have to pay. That was the job of Libor submitter, who the law says

:21:21.:21:24.

should be given his own view, not influenced by others. Then the rates

:21:25.:21:33.

from all banks were averaged. Panorama has uncovered a phone call

:21:34.:21:42.

during the crisis when a senior Barclays banker, Mark Dearlove tells

:21:43.:21:48.

the man setting to rate to push down the rates, because of pressure from

above. We played the recorder to a member

:21:51.:22:17.

of Treasury Select Committee who was shocked and called for an inquiry.

:22:18.:22:21.

What Dearlove is saying, if it is true, it is shocking. The tape

:22:22.:22:25.

suggests that in fact the Bank of England knew about it and were

:22:26.:22:30.

encouraging or instructing it. So we need an immediate ink are toy find

guilty to conspiracy to defraud and last year I asked him about the

Libor instructions from the top as he was heading to court to go to

jail. Were you ordered by your bosses to post false Libor rates

:22:49.:22:51.

under pressure from the Bank of England? No comment. One of Barclays

to Texas. He still thinks his trial was not fair. He said the shift in

England told Panorama Libor and other global bench marks were not

It's taken him 18 years, but Spain's Sergio Garcia has

:23:37.:23:44.

finally won his first Major golfing title.

:23:45.:23:49.

He beat England's Justin Rose in a sudden death play-off

:23:50.:23:51.

Garcia triumphed on what would have been the 60th birthday

:23:52.:23:56.

of his fellow countryman - and golfing hero - Seve Ballesteros.

:23:57.:23:59.

Our Sports Correspondent Katie Gornall has the story.

:24:00.:24:01.

And a warning that her report contains flash photography.

:24:02.:24:04.

After two decades of near misses and failed attempts,

:24:05.:24:07.

Well done Sergio, you've done it at last!

:24:08.:24:14.

A few years ago, Sergio Garcia claimed he wasn't good

:24:15.:24:16.

I felt today, I felt the calmest I've ever

:24:17.:24:24.

And even after making a couple of bogeys, I

:24:25.:24:32.

was still very positive, I still believed that there were a lot of

:24:33.:24:36.

holes that I could get to and I hit some really good shots coming

:24:37.:24:40.

It had been one of great duels in Masters golf -

:24:41.:24:50.

a two-horse race between Garcia and his friend and

:24:51.:24:53.

Ryder Cup team mate, Justin Rose.

:24:54.:24:55.

After 13 holes, Garcia was two shots behind.

:24:56.:24:58.

Would he again buckle under the pressure?

:24:59.:25:01.

This is where the doubters became believers.

:25:02.:25:03.

Garcia's finesse on the 15th brought him

:25:04.:25:09.

level and kick-started his push for victory.

:25:10.:25:14.

The tension would become overwhelming and with nothing to

:25:15.:25:17.

separate them after 18 holes, the match went

:25:18.:25:19.

Three shots later, Garcia conquered his opponent and

:25:20.:25:25.

I'm really happy for Sergio, obviously I

:25:26.:25:35.

would love to be wearing the green jacket, but if it wasn't me, I feel

:25:36.:25:38.

As a teenager, Garcia was the best amateur at the

:25:39.:25:42.

But as the years rolled by, he became known as one of best

:25:43.:25:48.

He had grown up wanting to be like his idol, Seve

:25:49.:25:54.

Ballesteros, a two-time winner of the Masters green jacket.

:25:55.:25:57.

Garcia's breakthrough came on what would have been

:25:58.:26:00.

Ballesteros's 60th birthday - a day when talent and fate came together

:26:01.:26:03.

Summer came and went April. -- quickly. Yes but it is April. You

won't see 25 degrees this week. By the time of Easter weekend we have

:26:28.:26:32.

northerly winds that and they're closer to what we expect. If you're

:26:33.:26:37.

planning your Easter weekend, there will be some showers. But a lot of

:26:38.:26:42.

dry weather and the sunshine gaining strength. Now turning chilly

:26:43.:26:48.

tonight. The cloud melting away to clear skies in England and Wales.

:26:49.:26:52.

More cloud in the north-west Highlands of Scotland, particularly

:26:53.:26:55.

west of hills and Orkney and Shetland. Shetland down to two

:26:56.:27:02.

degrees. Woe could see that in rural parts of Wales and the Midlands.

:27:03.:27:08.

Cloud will bubble up in England and Wales, especially northern England

:27:09.:27:11.

and Scotland and Northern Ireland dry, but in the Highlands, rain will

:27:12.:27:17.

come and go all day. A breeze adding to the chill. In the sunshine, still

:27:18.:27:26.

feels pleasant at 16. On Wednesday cooler, north-westerly winds bring a

:27:27.:27:30.

weather front and a mixture of sunshine and showers on Wednesday.

:27:31.:27:34.

Brightening up in England after a wet start. And damp in Wales, the

:27:35.:27:39.

Midlands and East Anglia. Many southern areas still dry and

:27:40.:27:43.

temperatures into the teens. A chilly night will follow. These are

:27:44.:27:46.

the temperatures into start Thursday. Could be a touch of frost.

:27:47.:27:51.

Still April. But it will be a bright start to Thursday, before cloud and

:27:52.:27:55.

showers develop towards the west. More details of course on the run up
